My ERIS won't play the videos on CNN, MSN browser, etc sites. What am I doing wrong?

same here. from what I understand, the first update messed it up and the second update just pushed out last night/this morning didn't fix it...that we will have to wait until the Jan. 22 update to correct it.

CNN.com is using Flash 10 for their videos, Eris doesn't have Flash 10 support, it is using flash lite .

Flash lite supports up to Flash 7 standards (note flash 10)
(Adobe Flash Lite - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Do you think the Jan. 22 update will include support for Flash 10? and why did the Youtube app that was working perfectly fine stop working after the first update and why didn't they fix it with the second update? Or am I applying logic to something completely illogical? To me pretty much everything they have done and do with these updates has no rhyme or reason.

Right now, I dont think OS 2.x will come with flash support out of the box. the Hero/Eris are the first droid phones to have flash support period. Flash 10 support will take more power that OS 2.x is supposed to make it even possible. but nobody knows or has confirmation from what I can tell:
